Therefore, when the messenger delivered such a red letter in front of hundreds of civil and military officials in the early dynasty, Gu Siyan, the emperor of Zhou who had not yet reached the age of confusion, almost fell off the dragon chair in shock.

This was the first time that the Emperor of Zhou received a red letter from the Emperor of Wei, and if there was a real war in the past, Wei had always attacked directly without saying a word.

Gu Siyan trembled in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, opened the letter of state like a hot potato, and his face was like a palette, unpredictable.

In the national letter, Emperor Wei explained very directly that Feng Yunchen, the prince of Wei, worshipped Master Shi'an as his teacher, and was originally practicing in Huguo Temple, but was driven out of Huguo Temple by Emperor Zhou, which made his soldiers very unhappy.

Although he didn't explicitly say that he would call, such a sentence that the soldiers were unhappy was enough to make the emperor of Zhou have a big head.

Gu Siyan was secretly scolding Emperor Wei's whole family in his heart, he was a prince, why did he come to his Zhou Kingdom to be a monk? Even if you want to worship Shi An as a teacher, you can tell him completely, why don't you give Shi An to Wei State?

What is the meaning of such a letter of state? Do you want him to send Shi An and that Feng Yunchen back to Wei? Or does he want to restore the Huguo Temple and let them live with good food and drink?

Gu Siyan sat on the dragon chair and rubbed his temples with a headache, and asked Gonggong Jiang beside him to pass on the national letter and circulate it to the civil and military officials, hoping that they could give him a perfect solution before tomorrow morning.

The ministers in the audience circulated the letter of state in groups of three or five, and discussed it in a whisper. The man on the high platform looked impatiently at the people buzzing like flies under the high platform, and stood up with a bad face.

"Retreat!" As soon as Gonggong Jiang next to him saw the emperor get up, he shouted loudly in his voice as ugly as a male duck, and after shouting, he shook off the dust, bent down and left the hall behind the emperor.

Everyone didn't have time to bow down, and Emperor Zhou had already disappeared into this palace of heart cultivation.

Although Gu Siyan now has only two princes, the ministers of the court and the central government are now divided into three factions. One faction is dominated by Uncle Shen Guo, who is the uncle of Gu Lingxiao, the seventh prince, and his sister Shen Xinyan is the current queen.

There is also a faction led by Lord Qin, the head of the household department, Qin Shangshu is the maternal ancestor of Gu Huaiyu, the ninth prince, but the concubine Shu Gui who gave birth to Gu Huaiyu and Gu Xirui is not the daughter of the Qin family.

Shugui Concubine Qin Lingyun was just a concubine of Qin Shangshu, just because Qin Lingyun was favored once, her concubine and aunt were raised by Qin Shangshu as his wife.

Although the two adults used to disdain each other, they were still able to live in peace.

It wasn't until Concubine Shu gave birth to the eighth princess and the ninth prince that the two began to blatantly mismatch, and instantly turned on the mutual pinching mode that can step on you and never poke you once. provoked the entire Great Zhou court, which was quite restless.

And the last faction is the royalist faction headed by Su Yuanqi Su Taishi, in addition to the big man Su Taishi, the royalist faction also has Su Taishi's son-in-law, the general Zhengyipin, who is known as "Lord Yama", and Su Taishi's cousin, the current Guozijian Young Master Su Ruoshui.

The rest of the royalists are not all real royalists, and a large part of them belong to people who don't know which side to stand on, so they stand in the middle first, wait for the wind to pick up, and then look at the direction of the wind.

Three piles of people were standing in a few corners of the Heart Cultivation Hall at the moment, talking endlessly about their opinions.

"Father-in-law," said to Su Yuanqi respectfully, "I don't know what my father-in-law thinks about this?" ”

Yan Duhuan, like his son Yan Youhong, is a good general who can only dance and play with swords, but let him interpret the rights and wrongs of this court, that is, the blind man walks at night and touches the dark.

Just like when the emperor named him a prince with a different surname, he was authorized to create his own title, he proposed a Hades for himself, and in the end, the emperor could only make him a prince without a title with a black line, anyway, no one dared to say anything about him without a title.

"The writing of the Emperor of Wei is indeed unclear, and it is necessary to first verify what is going on with the prince of Wei before making a conclusion." Su Yuanqi calmly touched his white beard.

He naturally knew what this rectal son-in-law was thinking, after all, his son-in-law was a well-known favorite wife in the capital, and his backyard had been clean for decades. At the same time, I am also very pleased that my daughter in the palm of my hand has such a delicate husband.

"Uncle, the nephew of the prince of Wei knows me." Su Ruoshui stepped forward calmly, and also bowed his hand respectfully to Master Su, and said in a low voice, "A few days ago, there was an evil ghost in Huguo Temple, and it was because of him. ”

Su Ruoshui slowly told everything he knew about Feng Yunchen, the prince of Wei State, that is, Xiao and not yet dusty.

Only then did Yan Duhuan know that the little novice wearing an eye patch who followed Master Shi'an to his house back then was Feng Yunchen, the crown prince of Wei, and immediately figured out why Wei no longer harassed their borders with Zhou in recent years.

Su Yuanqi nodded appreciatively as he listened.

He only has one daughter under his knees, Su Manshu, but fortunately, the cousin of the old Su family gave birth to a nephew who is so handsome and amazing. Although it is not as good as a close relative, it is also a descendant child of the same grandparents.

The house is not far away, and this nephew will come to worship every festival with some home-cooked gifts, which makes him feel closer.

And although the cousin is an old man, he did not raise this child arrogantly, this child is gifted and intelligent, and at the age of fourteen he was admitted to the top prize by relying on his own knowledge, and now he is only sixteen years old, and he is already the master of the country, and he is the master of the prince.

Although some officials from the DPRK and China are indispensable to sell his face, he also admires this cousin from the bottom of his heart.

"Where do you know these things?" Su Yuanqi listened to what Su Ruoshui said about Feng Yunchen, but he was afraid that this child was not very old, and there was no basis for it was just hearsay, so he brought it to the court to talk about it.

So he asked with concern, "Have you investigated clearly?" ”

"My nephew has a study on Wenji Street, and this little monk often comes to take care of my nephew. Xu had a hard time after moving to Fengyu Temple, so his nephew gave him some work to copy books, so they became acquainted. ”

Su Ruoshui heard Su Yuanqi's questioning, but he still replied without humility or arrogance, without a trace of impatience and grievance in his tone, and only said calmly, "These are all things he told his nephew personally." ”

Su Ruoshui and Feng Yunchen are actually friends who have known each other for a long time, and Weiyouchen has often loved to run to the study since two years ago, but he bought less, but the hours of reading books in the study are getting longer and longer.

Su Ruoshui also likes to sit in his study and read.

In the inner room of his study, a very large tree was planted, and he hollowed out a section of the tree to make a bookshelf, and even some thick branches were hung on a light bookshelf by him, and people who walked into his study would suddenly have a sense of peace.

Although next door is a noisy jewelry shop, sitting in his study, he has a different feeling that the outside is worldly and the inside is dusty.

The name of his study is also very chic, called "Tree House".

often read and communicate together, although the difference between the two is eight or nine years old, they still become rare good friends.

Sometimes Su Ruoshui, as the youngest son in the family, can't help but treat Wei Youchen as his younger brother, and even the books he asked him to copy were all selected by Su Ruoshui according to his own observations.

"I seem to have heard of it, although it was many years ago," Yan Duhuan remembered some gossip he heard in the army when he was stationed at the border pass, and said, "Queen Wei's palace is empty, there is only one Empress Wei, and the two are childhood sweethearts who love each other very much, but unfortunately Empress Wei died of blood during childbirth, and the only imperial heir is only this Feng Yunchen." ”

Yan Duhuan had fought with this Wei Emperor at the border, and he felt a little sympathetic for the heroic and resolute Wei Emperor. Even after hearing that Emperor Wei swore not to establish a harem and only favored the queen alone, his appreciation for him was even greater.

It's a pity that the Tao is not the same, otherwise he really wants to have a good drink with Emperor Wei.

"In this way, although Emperor Wei exiled the child to our Zhou State, he is not unconcerned. He's afraid he doesn't want this kid to go back to the province to see people thinking about him, right? ”

Su Yuanqi stroked his gray beard, thought for a while and said, "But it's only been two months since this Huguo Temple was changed to Xuanqing Palace, and if Xuanqing Palace is coming back, isn't this letting the emperor slap himself in the face?" ”

"Nephew has a solution." Su Ruoshui still maintained a humble posture with his head slightly bowed, and said in a cold tone, "I can advise the emperor to set aside a remote palace in the palace for the prince of Wei and Master Shi'an to live in, and let the prince of Wei and the six princes study with their nephews."

In this way, the Wei Emperor will know that our Zhou State attaches great importance to their Wei State, so that he can relax and hand over the crown prince to the care of our Zhou State. Letting the prince of Wei stay in the palace can also be regarded as a deterrent to Wei, although he is not a proton, we can also treat him as a proton, so that we are not afraid that the Wei State will meet our Zhou State soldiers. ”

"Wonderful! It's terrifying! Su Yuanqi patted Su Ruoshui's shoulder appreciatively, nodded and said, "Tomorrow morning, I will tell you everything you just said to the emperor, I believe the emperor will also praise you." ”

Although Yan Duhuan didn't understand these twists and turns, he heard that he didn't have to fight, and he could still let Shi An and his apprentices be properly taken care of, so he also showed a look of appreciation.

Su Ruoshui still lowered her head, and the corners of her mouth were pouting with a reassuring smile. He didn't need any praise from the emperor, he just wanted to do something for his friend Wei Youchen.
